I would worry about what wheels and tires you want to use. Put them where you want them and determine the axle width from there.

Sorry - I am running a 9" rear end in my 51 Ford, but my truck is unaccessible for the moment. I will gladly get you some info as soon as I can

Craig (I think he goes by Klassik here) from Australia has just completed a Jag install on his current project. I will alert him to this thread and see if he can help you out. Craig is the one who designed the www.hotrodders.com t-shirt by the way.

Please let me know how the jag rear end works out. I currently have a Ford 9" that is locked up. I am looking for a parts car to get all the innards out of to get my truck back on the road. I would love to find a 12 cylinder Jag somewhere that has been totaled and would make a great parts car.
